You know, I've gotten some good shots out of what I thought would be crappy lights that I just had around. With some creativity and elementary photoshop skills, you can make just about anything work. May 31 07 10:22 am Link Thanks. I should admit that there's a mega big (and mega expensive) Sunbounce between the model and the 8 worklights. I was totally dubious of the the whole idea until I saw the model at that moment. Now its my most popular portfolio shot. Sometimes good things happen in spite of myself... May 31 07 11:12 am Link the worst? hmmmmm Maybe not dangerous but I definitely have a beef with Normans. They use such tiny connector pins for their accessories. My fumbly fingers always struggle with them. They must be made for elves. - WCL May 31 07 12:07 pm Link mine May 31 07 06:47 pm Link I concur, I use AB's, I have seen allot of people who use AB do some really good stuff. I know one photographer who says he can work with any light, "light is light, you just have to know what you have and how to use it" Legacys 7 wrote: May 31 07 06:52 pm Link rp_photo wrote: Hey...I have a GREAT ringlight made from Home Depot supplies.
